please tell me that i get to kill that inquisitor dude
???!
biggest mmo rn running on a system from before i was born
you'll find out
Are FFXIV Cities sharded? Or is it only ever the one city server?
Anyone recognize this chest piece?
afik it's edenmate.. but I might be wrong
Er... complicated answer for the cities
edengrace fending
er not edengrace
edenchoir
Thanks Cap'n, very appreciated
Im more so curious if I go from an Aether server to a Primal Server, would I notice a population difference much?
no
CURRENTLY its 1 instance of each town per server, then 2 of the new expansion’s 2 new cities
nope, all NA servers are evenly distributed
Eh...
Gilgamesh and Balmung would beg to differ
Is there a way to farm Endtide Aethersands? Since miner / botanist doesnt have that from aetherial reduction im guessing its from fisher, but maybe not and just need to farm purple scrips for them
What is best way to level up 2nd job? It's so slow going
!faq altleveling
!faq altlvlguide
Ty
or buy with purple scrips
Botany and miner should have items for it
Not every gatherer has a way of getting every aethersand
Ah okay thank you!.. and yes miner/botanist have Endstone, Endwood, and Moonlight Aethersands not Endtides
Ah
Might have been thinking of the former 2
Could just try to get the Othardian Lumpsuckers from spearfishing?
mid size and average speed
Are they bigger or smaller?
Gilgamesh is "the raiding server" and if you're familiar with WoW, Balmung is Moon Guard
Ah gotcha
Wouldn't recommend Balmung
both of them are congested
Yeah Im staying far away lol
so its moot
if i have one time password can i still get hacked
Mateus and Balmung are the most populated if that's your thing
Do you guys happen to have any opinions on a server for Primal? The two I am considering the most atm are Excalibur and Famfrit
And currently Adamantoise, Balmung, Behemoth, Cactuar, Faerie, Gilgamesh, Jenove, Leviathan, Midgardsormr, Sargatanas, and Siren are all set to "congested"
They had them for a while
Yeah, my wife is on Faire and there is no way I will be able to server transfer there
pretty sure it's recent
Only if you're extremely stupid and give away your otp
ah it comes with 6.08
Unless you have a specific FC you intend to join, it doesn't really matter which server you go to
what if the email i have associated with the account has a bad password and no 2fa
world visit makes a lot of things moot
For Primal the only one I said say to stay away from is Levi
Maybe
tbh the answers you get here to "stay away" from a specific server are going to be honestly biased as fuck
Hi, I can't for the life of me find the interview where Soken showed Koji singing unedited, does anyone know where to find it?
Most likely just coincidence but basically every troll i've encountered has been a Levi player
you experiences may not even be remotely close to what others experience
Where can you find the whole thing?? Ty!
finalfantasyxiv went live on Twitch. Catch up on their Final Fantasy XIV Online VOD now.
Is there a way to tell which regional folklore tomes you've already used?
Gathering log
Oh right, always forget that other tab exists
You can't buy duplicates either
you cant buy dupes but hard to see what your missing without tokens or checking the logs
God send, thank you, I can sleep now
Anyone have any idea on Excaliburs population compared to other servers? Ive heard its on the higher side but all the population sites and articles have it as really low?
and it doesn't matter, all NA worlds are flooded with new players and 99% of content is cross-world
Excal's on the more populated side, we don't have any of the bigger named streamers on Primal so we don't a bunch of twitch subs/followers flocking to it to follow said streamers around the game
it was also one of the 1.0 servers
we do not have any accurate numbers
Literally the only servers that don't have high amount of players is the new OCE servers
because they were literally just released today
Not for servers
The more populated the server, the longer the queues to get in
For data centre as a whole
they share pf and df
and noone stopping people with certain interest to jump around servers and do their thing
Heyo, I'm blanking on how many Panda Savage pages you need for specific gear pieces. Does anyone have a link for the trade-in rates?
I: 4 per accessory. II: 6 per helm/gloves/boots, 4 per Radiant Coating. III: 8 per chest/pants, 4 per Radiant Roborant/Twine. IV: 8 for each weapon excluding PLD which needs 5.
Thanks! 
And then how much for the shield?
150 Astronomy
you can do /isearch and put the item's name
Put the name in quotations if it’s more than one word
i have these but i cant find them
I can play with my friend if they on pc right while I'm on PS4?

Now right click the item’s name and search for it
And it will tell you which section/page of the inventory
how far do people need to get up to to be able to access the entire relic chain for bozja? rank 15 + delubrum clear?
i thought i discarded them by accident or something and i spent 400k on them
Complete all of bozja story
So rank 25 and beat the Dalriada
no i dont think so, i completed mine around rank 20ish

and im still rank 20ish cuz i never went back
i don't think it is actually
Good to know
i remember being able to skip past that
Then you just need access to Zadnor
For the Bozja weapons?
yea i think final step unlock after a couple quests into Zadnor
Sorry if this is the wrong area, but have people been able to home world transfer yet? on my mogstation it's still saying the service is unavailalbe
In a few more hours
Why are the servers not accepting new characters
is this indefinite for the time being?
so no one can create new characters even in off hours i guess
Okay, thanks!
Until Se days so
rip aether
I'm trying to gift something to a friend in the game, but when I bought something as a gift it just gave me a code. Is there no way to mail it to them in game and have them open it there? Do I just have to give them the code?
So what's the difference of buying an item for yourself or the gift option? If you just a get a code to type into the mog station then it's no different, right?
for tanks is highest dungeon still the best way to level all the way through?
buying for yourself the item gets sent directly to that character/the characters on your account
Gotcha thanks
gift option gives you a code to give to the other person
yes, baring 50/60/70/80 dungeons as these do not give good exp
you mean the roulette?
the roulette and the dungeons themselves
What does duration mean on a spell? I'm playing black mage right now and I have fire that says 3 sec cast, 800mp, and duration 15s
if you are queueing for specific dungeons, you do not want to queue for dungeons that are those levels
!action fire
Deals fire damage with a potency of 180.
Additional Effect: Grants Astral Fire or removes Umbral Ice
Duration: 15s
Additional Effect: 40% chance next Fire III will cost no MP and have no cast time
Duration: 30s
Your Astral fire timer
The duration is for the effect immediately above
Oh I see, ty
Anyone else getting this error? Unable to complete version check.[30605][20448][10009[10019]
well my game wouldn't download on the steam version
how do i make it download
i brought it
I just bought the Steam version too. I was able to install, but then when I launch I get that error
its just stuck like this
Did you register the cd key to your Mogstation account?
where is that
In Steam, if you right click on the game it should have a "cd keys" item in the dropdown
this is the error message I get when trying to launch the game..
You need to register that key to your Mogstation account
Yeah, that's got a whole list of possible reasons.
hmm
Try the steps here: https://appuals.com/how-to-fix-ffxiv-unable-to-complete-version-check/
btw for the 15 days playtime? what's the requirements again?
Are you not allowed to use the 64bit boot file?I get this error when I try to sign in via the 64 bit version
how come I reached lv 30 in OCE DC and only receives 1m, but not the playtime
You probably received the playtime in the past
I use 64 bit yeah
It's a one-time thing
oh weird, what are other bonus I'm missing
I saw someone with a pet capybara how can I get one 
cause tbf I don't remember 🤦♂️
the game time can also take a bit to be applied to your account
who?
my comment is for vielen
gotcha
Is it possible for the Steam version of FFXIV to use the 64 bit launcher?
or is Steam 32bit only?
On the HW relic quest Born Again Anima, do I have to be on the job I'm getting the relic for to complete the dungeons?
Steam uses the Steam launcher
or is it synched
hmm
yeah you would need to @visual sandal
cause you need to equip the weapon before exiting the dungeon
it says either equipped or in inventory
Before beating the boss as the required job
afaik you could just wear it before exit cause I remember doing sephirot/sophia/zurvan normal with my high ilvl weapon
and then switch to the anima weapon before exiting
stinky
if i buy the steam complete edition will it transfer my free trial account over
Yeah
Is there a way to farm Materia (the most recent tiers)?
collective hunt killing
Hunt trains
do ar and leveling roulette role in need, that's pretty much it I guess
If you don't care which grade or type you get, you can always just spam 90 roulette and get materia from your spiritbonded level 90 gear.
!faq huntunlock
'How do I unlock Hunts?'
ARR Hunts: Be 2nd Lieutenant in your Grand Company and complete the quest 'Let the Hunt Begin' located at your Grand Company. You can promote to 2nd Lieutenant by talking to the Personnel Officer and buying promotions for seals and by completing the GC Hunting Log and the quests 'Shadows Uncast' and 'Gilding the Bilious'. This must be done to unlock HW Hunts.
HW Hunts: Go to Ishgard - Foundation at x13, y11.9 and complete the quest 'Let the Clan Hunt Begin' from Aytienne. Followup quests are 'Better Bill Hunting' from Eustacia, 'Top Marks' from Yloise in Idyllshire, and 'Elite and Dangerous' from Ardolain. This must be done to unlock SB/SHB Hunts.
SB Hunts: Go to Kugane at x10.4, y10.3 and complete all quests with 'Veteran Clan Hunt' from Estrild.
SHB Hunts: Go to The Crystarium at x12.2, 15.1 and complete the quest 'Nuts to You' from the Hume Lout. Afterwards complete all quests from Halldor at x9.5, y9.4.
oh hrm we didnt update that....
Doing the things everyone else mentioned will get you the clusters to buy materia.
EW hunts unlock in Sharlayan at the harbor
its in old sharlayan
i kinda need materia for melding my gear lol its for savage
Then the things listed are your options until the beast tribes come out. You can also buy materia from the hunt vendor in Old Sharlayan with Nuts
aaight ty
Also worth noting - you get the same hunt currency from both ShB and EW hunts, so if you need a couple of materia like, right now, you can do all of the daily hunt marks and the weekly hunt marks for both expansions and get enough for 3 or 4 materia X
Does the ShB Crafter Beast Tribe still give decent EXP if you're over lvl 80?
no
Thx
hello, i have a question about the new preferred datacenter bonuses for Materia - if I create a character and get the bonuses for doing so, will I also be able to claim the bonuses for transferring my existing character from NA?
I don't want to lock myself out of the transfer bonus just because i got bored waiting for world transfer to unlock
I mean, it's only about 6 hours until world transfer unlocks.
Yes, they added the EXP bonus as a thing you get for transferring to new worlds
i know the XP bonus is there, but I am asking if I lose the opportunity to get the transfer bonus if I take the new character bonus first in the meantime
they are 2 seperate things I reckon
It's for all characters
the bonus from transferring and the bonus from creating a new char
it's like 30 degrees outside with no cloud cover, no shops, and covid's going on. wtf else am i going to do today other than paw at the screen and wait for WT to unlock
nap?
(except the free day thing)
I'm American. Is that warm or cold?
warm if it's celcius
86 F outside, 77 F inside
I know. That's why I'm asking to be specific 😄
So it's warm inside. Perfect for a nap.
ah, so I can claim either bonus as many times as I like while they're available?
The only bonus that can only be claimed once is the 15 days free playtime
The rest should be per character

the 1m gil is per character?
yes

If you're asleep you can't feel the heat
Where do you claim the 1mil bonus from? I made a new char on oce today
Mailed to you, IIRC
It's dropped to your character when you moved to different area
so if you reached lv 30 at tam-tara, you should receive it straight away when you exit the dungeon
but not sure about the 15 days thing, so far I haven't received it
is it possible to get people in pf to clear p2s if I don't have the clear? been trying all day, but cause being week 4 it's almost impossible to get a full party who "really" know mechanics even if explicitly asking for it in pf.
Would be better if I give up on getting 2 chests this week and just put it as c41 no chests?
I know the strats, even all fight, the problem is that for 7 players who join me in pf, 1-2 don't know mechanics and cause wipe, I've trying for hours today and I've only seen enrage once
yeah, I know, I can't join those
i thought new players could start the free trial starting today?
nope
only sales is open for free trial player
free trial registration is still unavailable
so if they buy the game they can play it?
free trial has always been able to play
It's just that they can't get past lv 60 and HW expansion
start your free trial is grayed out on ff14 website
if you don't have free trial account, yeah then you can't
any idea when someone will be able to make a new account? trying to get a friend into the game
No
rough
So if im in balmung will i have a free transfer since it's congested or is it only for oceania servers
Is there a glamour guide anywhere I could reference? I dont mean the glamour collection, but like, how to make my own.
what I do is find a chest piece I like and build the rest of the glam around that
can we world transfer our characters to OCE yet? I'm on Tonberry/JP server. Wanting to move to OCE
17:00 AEDT
Hey, I just bought the game through steam and opened the launcher. I logged in and then this happened. It isn't telling me what is going on and I can't seem to click on much. What is going on?
When do i receive the platin packs from the TTT?
Hello, can i ask about account activation here?
might have to reload the launcher
that’s the correct screen for the launcher but all the buttons and images are missing
Try switching to the classic launcher (in settings) and then switching back
how does "born again anima" work
from spamming A9s, how does it show progress made?
LOL, now when I click it it's just sort of frozen. I did get it to ask me if I wanted to cancel the update. Is it behaving like this because it's downloading the game and just not showing me any progress?
This seems to work and is at least now showing me some download progress bar.
Nice. Hopefully it finishes downloading the game and you can play
Be sure to check your ping to OCE beforehand
is there a reason why so many people join a party in pf to leave after 2 seconds? are there mods that show fflogs info instantly when entering a party or something like that for people to join, decide if staying or no, and leave just seconds after?
if its savage sometimes people will see a 7/8 and join that so they don't have to wait. especially on tanks / healers
or really any party that has tanks and healers filled
a 4/8 that needs only DPS is gonna fill way faster than a 7/8 looking for a tank
most of the time
but joining and leave inmediatelly? happened in a 7/8 and in a 6/8
also sometimes
idk maybe they recognize someone in the party
because blacklist still lets you into other peoples parties
maybe blacklist or something
I know a lot of people who pf regularly that make extensive use of their blacklist
You get pop-up text after clearing the instance that says you got aetheric density
And then you can use the zodiac glass in your key items to check progress
the weapon has to be in inv/equipped before leaving instance?
Equipped when killing the final boss
ah.
yeah make 2 different gear set
then just switch between the two when you exit
not sure if dragging weapon to the hotbar switch it, never tried
i wouldn't even bother with that
just equip the weapon
a9s is easy enough where it really doesn't matter
especially if you have at least like 5 level 90s
oh you are right
Ok so I bought a Fantasia and name change about 1 hour ago but I have yet to receive it as I have received Fantasias quicker in the past but my question is since I went through the name change on my character did I mess up and that would that affect the delivery?
No the fantasia will still go through. High traffic does mean that orders are slower to process however. Give it some time and it should work.
3 days me buying games I don't know best deal
You checked the Delivery Moogle?
is it cool if we talk about game mods (like for extra hairstyles) here or is it not allowed?
can i transfer for OCE servers now?
Five hours from now iirc
Does anyone know if I can setup a macro to highlight itself when "Ability" procs?

You can not as far as I’m aware. I would also highly recommend that you do not macro your combat skills. With very very few exceptions, putting skills on macro has a huge detrimental impact on your damage output.
I wasnt planning on using the macros for combat
just to indicate when a proc has happened
without me looking down to my skills
What you can do is set up a mostly-transparent separate hotbar with the few skills you want to watch on it, dial up the size, make sure they're transparent enough that they don't interfere with your gameplay but visible enough that you can still tell they exist, and set that bar closer to the center of your screen.
I thought of that, but didnt think about Transparency, thanks
Other than that, abilities already highlight themselves when they proc so
while you're not wrong, sadly it's not exactly perfect for me
what is the exact thing you are trying to do? what led you to think about using a macro?
So about a month ago I bought FF14 on the PS5 store. I couldn't play it because SE took down the game temporarily and so I waited. But now when I play the game it says to use a promotional code which I did not get. Anyone else have this problem and has been able to fix it? If so please help.
Just so you know I ONLY bought the FINAL FANTASY XIV: Endwalker - Collector’s Edition [PS4 & PS5] (Add-On) if that helps. Or maybe I'm missing something here and I'm an idiot.
You need to buy the actual game, not just the Endwalker DLC
KNEW IT
Thanks so much
🙏
As it turns out I am an idiot
Btw it’s endwalker right?
what mount is this and how do i get it?
Raigo. It’s from an old collab event with GARO. Unknown when it will come back
So I just bought FFXIV on steam and I have a square enix members account that I created like 2 years ago. I don't own the game anywhere else. I can't log into the FFXIV launcher using my email so I'm not entirely sure what to do. Anyone know what I can do?
Does anyone know what the subscription cost on steam is for aus people
You don’t sub on steam
I want to pay with steam wallet tho
Hello I have a basic quesiton, if I bought cosmetic items in the moogle shop, can I use these items if I create a new character too?
No
It was a little confusing when the Endwalker Collector's Edition has the same price as the Complete Edition which includes the Starter Edition with the expacs.
!faq mogstation
You need to make an account here
The square enix members account is just for the SE store
Thank you so much
Soo I have a question regarding mogstation items
So you have 1 character items and account wide items
If I buy something on the marketplace can I trade it to my friend, and can I if we both used a world transfer
The mount I bought says that the recepient is account-wide. Does that mean I get it on all chars?
I'm not really sure if this is the question to ask here but ive been looking on the internet for hours. I'm brand spankin new, i bought standard and endwalker.. downloaded the game and went to make a character but couldnt make a viera or hrothgar so i just made an Au Ra. Played up until my first quest then logged out to fix some graphic settings but when i went to log back in, I have another huge "update" does anyone know what this could be?
I'm hoping its just missed DLC and not a reoccurring issue thats going to keep happening every time i logoff
sounds like the rest of the game didn't download
You didn’t download EW, now you did. All is fine
It's nothing to worry about, just let it finish
Awesome, thank you all so much! Hopefully this'll fix some of the graphic errors too
are gatherer scrips and crafters scrips the same?
no
so I can't use one for the other
Of course not
nope they are their own thing
Oceanier server: If I want to name change, could I create a character on the new server with the same IGN, then transfer my character over for a forced name change?
I guess
yup
it's how you scam out a name change for free with a world transfer
Does world transferring, transfer the whole account? or just individual characters? 😮
characters
Ahhh okay thanks guysss
Also, as an fyi
Yeah was hoping i wouldn't need to spend for it :/
Do read what world transfer service asks of you
Cause iirc it asks for home world first and then asks for target world
Considering someone stole all other 8 names on my current world with mules...
I'm still a bit confused by that, should I be choosing Target world?
there's no way to transfer from somewhere like primal to crystal is there? i'm unsure if home world transfer service is just within server or nah
you can go anywhere that isn't congested
oooooh
i can't do a world visit that way though right, like i'd have to for sure do a transfer first to be in the same subset
not yet no
ah kk ty
Would I have to have a second FFXIV account for this to work? 😮
nah
actually
iirc you might need standard sub for it cause you can't have 2 character on 1 world with entry sub 🤔 i'm not sure cuz i never done this
They would yeah
is there any cool horse mount that isnt on the mogstore (excluding those horses that are recolors)?
anyone know any good resources for viera hairstyle mods/aesthetic mods? for research purposes only of course 
xivmodarchive has a bunch
You can probably find a popular mod maker there and they'll have a link to their site where they got more
Just away to go to bed but just want to check for when i wake up in the morning :)
Are the home world transfers up yet? And if so how much are they (or how much do they usually cost anyway) thank you!
Can I turn off the "Your mount can fly no higher" message/sound
Are the home world transfers up yet? And if so how much are they (or how much do they usually cost anyway) thank you!
@hard hollow $18 I think??? (idk for sure), opens up at 10pm PST

totally random thought, is there a discord for triple triad enjoyers where they do private tournaments?
probs not but doesnt hurt to ask
So I joined a Data centre where I’m from but it’s not letting me create a character. Is it just me or is it like that for everybody right now?
Some servers have congested status right now, which means you can't create characters on them. All of Aether's servers are congested.
Damn. You wouldn’t happen to know when they’ll fix that?
Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.
I want to transfer from Aether to crystal to play with a friend. How do I do it?
When the transfer service is up, use that
im trying to install the game for the first time but it keeps installing to my C drive
my C drive doesnt have enough space. Does anyone know how to switch the download location within the launcher
Hello
it seems like it might be auto moving the files to a different drive when i put my steam games, so its downloading to C but continuously moving them to another drive
Samurai and red mage are playable on 200 ping with minimal packet loss right
Waiting for the world transfer to open. It's still down right?
depends, if your internet is bad enough sometimes you'll get dualcast but start hardcasting anyways
test it out a bit
has anyone actually recieved the 15 days of playtime after hitting 30 on materia?
I just read you could get scammed if someone gifts you a minion, how true is that and how does it work? serious question
e
Does overmelding gear continuously give the +20% Spiritbound bonus up to 5?
What no, you’re just trading
didnt know rubick played ffxiv
WELL HE DOES, thank you very much,
oh so its a lie, thanks for clearing that out
I was worried, someone randomly gave me a minion
Quick question
Will Aether stay closed for home world transfers this week?
depends on congestion, so there's not like... a set period of time or anything
hey i found a mid tier crafting from this discord but i cannot find the highest tier gatherer and crafter. is there a need to have high tier? if so may i be directed as to where i can get it please and thank you kindly
sorry crafting and gatherers
Yeah i i know. Its kinda "Should i wait for friends to transfer and keep savage chest active, or reclear now so its done"
situation
There was this post yesterday of Aether still being in full congestion
Nobody can transfer to Aether, that’s correct
Unlike the character creation thing, a server marked as Congested does not change dynamically. It is closed until they update it manually. Which always requires maintenance.
Every server in Aether is Congested so no new characters can be made there or transferred in.
That being said, high tier isn't necessary for current end game crafts
Even is you have the budget/mid tier set, throw in a few HQ mats are youre able to 100% HQ
But high tier sets you up for the next wave of crafts. Cant say how much stats we need then
fastest way to get white crafter scrips?
Collectibles
Hello! I am new to the server and figured I would try to search a few discords for answers. I got pulled into FFXIV back in August by a few friends who play on Kujata and I am based in NA. With Homeworld transfer opening back up was kinda looking to hop to an NA DC. I was thinking of Jenova or Cactuar. I am a casual player but, I do like to do End-game content. Any suggestions? Queue times still crazy on NA?
What’s the site again, to see where you can transfer??
!faq worldpick
You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.
The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.
If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype in #kupo-bot-spam.
Notable worlds:
- Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
- Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
- Moogle (Large amount of French players)
- Shiva (Large amount of German players)
ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY
cheers
Thank you
!faq worldstatus
Does anyone know if Aeather can transfer to chaos, Omega,
you can transfer dcs, just need to pay
Fastest way to level is doing your highest dungeon right?
!faq altlvlguide
Highest non cap dungeon
How much exp do you get per dungeon usually my alt is 61.
okay ty
bless you and your explanation
At 61, doing the level 61 dungeon it should take about 3-4 runs on average, 62-63 will take 4-5 more.
61-71 might honestly be faster in hoh 
So im very new and adjusting my ui atm. Anyways after my sprint wears out ff14 displays a "-sprint" icon and im wondering if there is a way to change where that shows up, thanks in advanced. Hopefully it can be changed
Ya i got 505k exp from hoh so I was wondering lol
Leveling dungeon xp under 81 is kind of weak atm.
Dungeons should be faster
On average, they probably are.
But yeah
Hoh probably op for that part
But doing ~8 or 9 runs per dungeon until 81 (when the xp from dungeons becomes stupidly buffed) can get extremely tedious.
Tell me about it 
whats the more simple tank in the game? going to try learning tank and im swapping from mainly playing white mage
Where can I find the australia IP address for pingtest?

Hey guys I have an issue with the key, I just bought the game yesterday on Steam but the region is wrong
Is it possible to buy the game on a different Steam account and use that key on my Steam account (with the wrong region)?
Does the story branch at Stormblood? Got 2 separete MSQ quests and during one of those I get 2 more
not really, its the same as heavensward
Any other Mac users get this audio "crunchy/echoing" problem? Like, once every twenty launches the audio is garbage until I relaunch
in that here's an initial part that has two "branches" but it ultimately ends up in the same spot
Are the asphodelos mythos books limited to 1/week or can I farm the savage fights for them?
you just get a choice of which part to do first
Can I do both at the same time?
Oh nice
1 a week
rip, thanks
with the world transfer service does it transfer all characters in your original world to the new one or does it do it one character at a time?
One character
ok ty
you can choose to move all if you want
or you can only move 1, like its up to you how many you want to move
though do keep in mind if you're on entry you can only have 1 character per world
yeah i just wanted to move one to the new oce server

My friend wants to buy the game on steam and I want to refer him, the referral will still work after he purchases the game right? Like as long as he does it quickly
He can enter your code after he registers the starter edition on mogstation, but before paying for a sub.
The 30 days that come after buying the starter edition don't count?
They do not

hi someone said mount will be avalible at level 20 but im now lvl26 and i still dont have that function
When can I get my first mount?
The quest that allows you to use mounts,
''My Little Chocobo'', is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest
''The Company You Keep''. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose, and you'll need to buy a Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 required Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes immediately after ''The Company You Keep''.
Are there any differences between mounts?
Some mounts allow multiple people (2/4/8) to ride at once, with all mounts having the same movement speed. A partial exception to this rule is the SDS Fenrir, a mount from the Mog Station. The SDS Fenrir acts as if you have the first mount speed boost obtained from completing specific quests in the story, making it a bit faster than other mounts, but only until completing the relevant story quests for that zone.
Can I make my mount faster?
Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.
is heavens' eye the most expensive IX materia on the mb?
oh ill take a look
2/3 of IX materia are missing on the mb haha
Search manually through the materia category
Hey guys! I need some help with a thing. I accidently purchased the entry level via steam. are you able to upgrade the plan somehow?
Hi, i was curious if anyone knows what outfit Larryzaur is using in his newest videos? It looks cool
Have it downloaded
Update your subscription settings at the mogstation
It's the SMN AF5.
thx solved it 🙂
If I upgrade to A Realm Reborn collectors edition is everything account-wide or single character wide?
say do i need to buy strom blood and shadowbringers off of square enix? since only endwalker is on steam
You can’t buy those 2 separately
They’re included in EW
As the description states
0:00PST for server transfer?
10:00pm pst.
If i move to OCE from JP can i eventually pay to come back?
Asking because unstable connection from SEA to JP due to damaged cables.
does the 15 frree sub day for lv30 character work with new server like OCE ones? Or only preferential one?
All collectors edition items are account wide
Yes you can get from new servers
thanks for your help! :)
Thank you.
Also, how can i dye a summoner horn lvl50 item?
I am trying to sue it woth the lvl70 summoner quest gear
you cant create a new character at all on a congested world? no matter the time?
Or transfer to it
Buy/craft the augmentation item
Can’t
Hmm?
That doesn't work for congested worlds
Congested worlds are locked until SE says they aren’t
Congested worlds are hard locked from new characters and transfers until SE updates the status of the world manually when they judge that population is low enough
It only work for worlds that aren't congested but have temporary character creation locks
No exceptions
Ah...
Do I need dlc to make my summoner lvl 80
Yes
Which one
Endwalker
Ty
I would appreciate if someone can help me by enter my recruitment code, I really want to get the 2-seat Chocobo, and I need to invite one more player
Use the RAF Reddit
!faq raf
How low do I have to get tsuki to get nightbloom for blu?
It’s a phase transition
Ok
Only endwalker right?
Yes, it includes the other expansions
Ooh
That’s all you can get on the store
how do I access the bicolor gemstone sellspeople in norvardnt?
Quick question. I'm trying to use the Community Finder but my character from the game isn't showing up there.
Talk to the vendors
The vendors in Eulmore/Crystarium can only be accessed after hitting shared fate rank 3 in all SHB zones
Unless you mean the rank 3 people, which requires rank 3 in each zone
In a lord of verminion tournament, do you get more points from higher ranked players as in players who are ranked higher that tournament, or is it ranked higher in ranked
Is there any benefit to spending my books on ilvl 600 jewelry if I already have the ilvl 590 jewelry, and I'm just waiting on a coating drop that some random in pf doesn't snipe?
Hi, any update on world transfer status? It still seems to be unavailable through the mogstation
They said it’ll open tomorrow
Which is tomorrow for some
Bought the game but theres a problem. My friends play on tonberry
so how long does this congested world thing last? 
Until SE decides to remove it
wait people are unable to make chars rn?
To create new characters I think you have to wait till like the server isn't congested which should be late night
that sucks lmfao
My server is no longer as congested as it used to be
same problem! i was camping all last night but tonberry didn't open up at all so...
Yeah I remember my friends having to make characters at 4 am
Congested worlds don’t open
It returned to standard 30-40 people queue
!faq serverlock
Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.
any idea if it might get changed since world transfer is opening up soon too?
It won’t
earliest it will change will likely be 6.1
Congested status was barely applied today. It's not changing any time soon.
got it, ty
That sucks
yo quick question, does tricks of the trade (crafter ability to restore cp on good or excellent) use durability? dont wanna test with only 10 dura but need to know
No
so theres no way to play with my friends on tonberry? 
Unless you all move to a different server
Pick another server on the same datacenter. You can world visit or do cross-world parties with them. You won't be able to join their FC though.
It doesn't use durability
Hello 🙂
Question regarding Frontlines.
Ive done a few matches yesterday. Pure Chaos. Want to Know if there was any way to die less/be more useful.
Things I learned so far:
- Stick to the pack. Alone, your an easy target.
- Focus on points, not kills.
- Stick to the sides of fight. Hit stragglers.
Anything else, apart from getting good?
FYI, I was playing as Bard. Should I switch to White Mage?
For some reason I don't have my character showing up when I go to the Community Finder.
When trying to log into Lodestone
any way to change sending and receiving to ping?
I still find that so odd considering we have been using ping forever
question
maintainance happened
so that means all special fate spawns are reset right?
IE: we need to wait 15 more hours for them to have a chance of spawning
say when making a character how long does it take for the server's to clear up?
try low traffic times ie: late night early morning
I think so https://faloop.app/fate
and how late is late?
I want to economic meld my gear (reaper's), and both cirit and determination/DHR are not at their maximum. In this case, for the over melding part, which do i meld in? Try to maximum the crit, or balance it with determination/DHR
!faq balance
what the heck, did they change something this patch? i just got void ark via alliance raid roulette, only to find out that ive never done it before cuz im stuck in the post-clear cutscene??
Nothing changed with Void Ark
You can get new duties in roulettes
huh TIL
It’s just unlikely, because ya know
Anybody else having issues logging into Lodestone? I have my account set up and it is still not showing up
selected at random among those you unlocked
That's actually how I finished the HW raids a long time ago. Unlocked via quest, then never did them until they came up in roulette.
DF's words not mine
The only roulette that requires you to have completed all of the duties in it is expert/90 (when that comes) roulette
the others just choose from things you have unlocked but not necessarily completed
Anyone know how long world transfer maintenance ends??
Ends in like two hours
Alright cheers.
are there specific crafting poetics gear from the vendors that I should go for? I see there are two seperate categories.
ohhh yeah ok
thanks
FFXIV is a perpetual learning experience
and poor impulse control will hold me back
What is the hunter clan mark mount for 6.0?
Victor, they’re a bulldog
is the character creation of Tonberry completely disabled regardless off-peak or not?
Amphelice doesn't appear for me in Idyllshire... did they move her or do I have to do some quest first?
Completely disabled until its server status changes to standard or preferred
you need to do "Future proof" first
guys how do i make a field mouseover macro for hissatsu: soten?
its the sam dash for pvp
Can’t
However you can simply double-press the button and it will act like a mo
You may have to enable a setting for this
if I have gear coffers that serve no use to me, whats the best thing to do with them
open them then sell?
what gear coffers?
chances are the gear isn't tradeable from them
in which case just desynth or turn into GC seals
random ones from endwalker msq
Msq coffers are just HQ gear
Eh, most quests in shb and ew reward covers
Yes sell or desynth
Coffers*
msq coffers yea just sell or desynth
on market or to vendor
Market
You might want to keep them for future alts
market
sounds good
Vendor Gill is literally nothing
you will almost certainly get some shitter who's buying gear for
reason
hey can i ask what crafters to spam to get more crafter scrips level 90?
Collectibles
I think the cooking collectible is the most efficient for white
i mean what recipe
I don't recall what I use for purple
ahh cooking
i just spammed integral armillae (carpenter one?)
only takes 2 mats gatherable from retainers
thank you!@
Does changing my lv90 gladiator retainer to a paladin reset her level?
I am so confused where to buy more time to play ff14 on mogstation it takes me nowhere 
I will send you what I mean
ffxiv is better in dx11 right?

whats the price of home world transfer again?
18 USD
Home world transfer is still down yeah? Just checking it’s not just my browser/account
what to do with extra poetics
do you interested in making anima weapon?
at some point
ye
Ahhhh
still torn between starting over or transferring my WHM to Oceania…
you can stock some of the mats iirc, anima cost like 6k+ poetic iirc
do they increase the ilevel of anima weapon in every expansion/patch?
gotta re-make the substats iirc
nope
anima stops at 275
every expansion have different relic that you need to grind from 0
EW dont have one yet
that feels sucky XD
it usually comes on X.2 or X.3 major patch
Is there a way to level up a chocobo companion (post level 10) without a stable?
yes
what settings is that?
thavnair onion
I'm moving to the oce server and without housing it seems impossible
I know you have to feed it a thavnair onion
but you have to do that in a stable
no?
then how?
and use it
nope, summon your chocobo and use the item
yea
So I just have to make sure its out and I can use the item? There is no "train" button or anything?
nope
nope
anyone transferred to OCE yet? Wondering how's the dutyfinder queues and savage PF population.
Do you need to complete a jump puzzle for a different sightseeing log before you can get to the one at Nilopala Nourishments?
Because I see no guides for it.
transfer not opened yet so only sporuts on OCE atm
Wait so whats the point of training/feeding it in a stable then?
You guys were right it worked
extra exp when you dont use it (like when you spamming dungeon)
wait, then when's the transfer?
Soon ish
In like 42 mins
and how long will it be open for, is there a place I can read about it?
the free transfer, i mean
how exactly do shared fates work
That’s just for the new worlds
Until the new world status is removed in a future patch
its just "fate clear counter"
so I have to do each diamond to rank up?
So for however long they stay “New”
just got a pc and I want to buy the complete edition, but i have free trial save data on my ps4. If i buy it now, will it give me the option to transfer data from my ps4 onto this pc or nah?
are they specific fates or cna I just do any fate
yeah rank 1-2 is 6 fate
2-3 is 60 fate
Any fate
any fate
In that zone
what exactly do you get for ranking to the max
if im tryna unlock binding coil of bahamut
i guess rank 3 is max?
can I duty finder it
More stuff in Bicolor gemstone store
no, coil is count as savage raids so no one do it nowadays unless cheesing it using unsyc pf
hmm okay
what about alexander?
Raids from 60+ have actual casual difficulties
3 in every zone
wait so the only way to do coils is to pretty much find a group to do it with?
alexaner have proper normal aka story difficulty so you can use DF
yes, just open PF and 3-4 people lvl80-90 can help you clear it
did all of omega before
pf?
wait is that party finder
So Ahm Araeng says I have 4 currents left, none are story. But the compass says there are none in the area? Am I missing something?

spot blue quests in the area

Quest currents aren’t tracked by the compass
Sidequest currents
what's the difference between logical and physical data center?
which is better, handcraft king tools or handking gear?
what's the etiquette for daily marks? Do they spawn back quickly?
or does nobody care?
daily marks as in the overworld mobs target?
or S/B/A rank?
just kill em on sight, they spawn in like 1 min
ah ok ty
Within the physical North American datacentre there are three logical datacentres: primal, aether and crystal
bump
if i uh,, switch gcs does my gc rank reset and do i have to do squadrons all over again
you keep your squadron
THANK GOD
you just get them back as soon as you reunlock squadrons
but until then they just disappear into limbo
should I get handking gear or tradecraft king tools?
what would you guys consider to be the busiest (or at least, the most buttonpushy) job, like the bard constantly has buttons to press, but the gunbreaker has its "just press every button because you just used no mercy" phase
if you're asking about APM
it's something like NIN MCH GNB BRD
in that order
top 4 most buttons per minute
nice! I got half of them!
i don't recall the exact order anymore and I'm not completely sure it's GNB at 3rd
but NIN and MCH are top 2 without a doubt
I usually like thes "APM" jobs, but i can never get into mch
the other three get lots of love from me
since beast tribe allowances decrement at quest pickup, does that mean if i dont turn in a beast tribe quest till after daily reset, it wont count twoards the daily 12 limit?
You can’t get tribe quests if you still have some from the previous day
but if i turned them in, woudl i be able to get new ones?
yea but carryover doesnt count
I apologize if this was asked previously.... But it said that sales would continue January 25th at 5PM JST. That's Jan 25th 12AM PST or 3AM EST.... Right?
Did I miss a short time frame where they opened it and closed it back up?
sales are open
Weird... Says suspended on my end.
Oh eff... I did T refresh the page.
Idiot I am. Sorry.
What's a good guide to getting better with AST?
the balance
Yeah, already reading there. but besides that? Some weeks ago someone put here a link to a video guide
Anyone know why I'm getting the download error randomly, between every 5min and 2 hours?
Internet isn't dropping out
what do you need help with?
if its GCD up time, for fights the best thing you can do is just practice and play a lot
like "get better" is pretty vague tbh
are you talking about like trials? savage? Dungeons?
are you finding yourself unable to keep the tank up?
is your parse % low?
are you parsing in PF? with a static?
Do more dps, better judgement in what to use for healing for every possible situation. 2 weeks ago in fflogs I was 0.9% when I thought I was fine (and I was attacking all the no healing time).
After then I started using Balance opener and I went up to 4%. I want to get better.
I then started using xivanalysis to know what to do better and also watched there some 99% players to learn from them. But I wanna see a video guide to listen more directly opinions on how to be better.
I haven't seen my new logs during last week cause I play in PS4 so I need to wait for someone to record me
did you try xiv analysis first?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3E3AEsREpw
Is a good basic thing. If you're parsing like 4% it sounds like
Today on “What the Heal Am I Doing?” Momo takes us back to the basics of healing and covers the philosophy of healing in FFXIV and what elements are important to focus on in order to be the best healer you can be!
.
Welcome to "What the Heal Am I Doing?" In this series, FFXIVMomo walks us through what it takes to be a healer and how to save you...
you're casting too many GCD heals
Does world transfer come up soon?
when you look at your log what does "overheal" say
This for Savages
do you have your log?
rn item level is going to affect a lot of it
like p4s especially is super competitive

You use the other Idyllshire exit
this is your major issue
yeah
ello \o/
I can't transfer my character yet ;_;
90% vs 99% uptime means the difference between a purple and a green/gray parse
yeah, this log, when I got 4%, I was sure to be always casting all the time, except when moving. I saw there it didn's seem the case, but when I was playing I "was sure" to never stop casting
says you are cancelling the casts
out of a 10 minute fight you're doing nothing for 3 minutes of it
make sure the cast goes off before moving
wasn't World transfering to OCE open now?
how do I buy another estate if I already have an estate?
thats for damage, for healing:
it should be as of four minutes ago
never cast aspected benefic, aspected helios unless you have to always use exaltation, celstial intersection, celestial opposition before those
how do I copy pasta a screen?
it honestly looks to me like you just need more practice
so maybe I was always casting, but moving mid-casting was what killed my uptime?
onto here
you are moving mid cast incorrectly
you have to stay in one spot for 1.5 seconds
slidecasting is a good thing
but if you are cancelling your cast then it becomes a bad thing
yeah, I know, I only moved when needed to avoid aoe or for a mechanic
Correct. Need an active subscription to transfer characters.
How to pick a World on Oceania? Is there a discord specific to OCE data center that lays out what each of the World's are focused on?
thanks, I guess i am not going to play this game then. all that time spent on NA servers wasted.
ktq can you link the discord for Oceania?
none of the worlds have a focus they're just different servers
yeah, I've started using macrocosmos a lot last week
Ah okay - how to choose a World then? Just pick whatever?
each time you cast draw you have like 30s to choose
so make sure you are always casting draw
and don't let it sit
you gotta use a lot more than just macrocosmos dude
just pick whatever, yeah
you're missing 14 CIs, 8 exalts, and 3 COs
got a stupid question. if I bought off an overmeld gear already has materia in there and I removed them. i won't be able to meld materia back unless I have crafting high level to do it?
yeah, I know, I meant I started using it in my rotation a lot, not that i was only using that
held onto earthly star for 4 minutes
earthly star is arguably the most powerful spell you have
yeah
always press earthly star on cooldown
if it does damage / buffs
always use on cooldown
never hold
Which OCE server are most people moving into?
Doesn’t matter
Can anyone transfer? I'm getting an error message
so PF / DF is shared
Is Hells’ Kier solo-able as a level 90 reaper? I’m trying to get my last kamuy
